TRACKS:
You ask me if my love is true
What I'm gonna do is prove it to you
Absolutely baby, you know I'll do it for you
Would I stop smoking and drinking and cussing
And change all those habits that you find disgusting
Absolutely baby
Would I hold your bags while you shop for clothes
Would I learn to dance without crushing your toes
Absolutely baby
Would I tell the truth babe you know I would
Would I tell a lie if it made you feel good
Absolutely baby
I would do anything baby can't you see
Because of all the good things that you do for me
Absolutely baby
I know that you're leaving
I know our love is dying
But we've been so close baby
I can't keep from crying
So before you cross that line
Let me ask you one last time
Baby would you please leave your dog
We used to spend our time together
Making love every night
Nothing could come between us
Nothing could make us fight
Then we started acting crazy
We made a yelling screaming mess
Now you're packing your belongings
I only have one request
I don't want your money
You know I'm not a mooch
But I'll be lonely when you leave me
So baby would you leave your pooch
I never had a pet of any kind
Till you moved in with me
When you were away on business
She kept me company
She kept me warm in the morning
She kept me running all day
I can't believe you're leaving me
And taking your dog away
I don't want the beach house
I can't keep it up
But I'll be lonely when you leave me
So baby would you leave your pup
You know I'm gonna miss you darling
Curling up next to me
But we can't go on bitching
Fighting endlessly
We really tried to make it baby
I'm sorry that we failed
Somehow I think we could have worked it out
If you had four legs and a tail
I don't want half your assets
I won't be a hog
But I'll be lonely when you leave me
So baby would you leave your dog
Believe it or not I was a quiet man
Stayed home alone with my head in the sand
Very calm very shy
Till you came along and opened my eyes
Now I can't sit still
Can't keep sleeping
Can't hide away since the day that I met you
You came up to me with that look in your eye
You made me laugh until I cried
And I knew that I loved you
When you showed me how to do the do
Now I can't sit still...
Now the older I get the younger I feel
Got my foot on the floor and my hands on the wheel
When we're old and gray gonna make them stare
When we jump right out of those rocking chairs
Can't sit still
Can't keep sleeping
Can't hide away since the day that I met you
I'm no wallflower since the hour I met you
I jumped right in it the minute I met you
Tumbleweed played guitar on the street
He drew a big crowd every night
He said I really can't sing and I really can't play
But I know what the people like
I think it's true
So I'm telling you
You got to use what you got
What've you got to lose, just take a shot
You got to use what you got
Mister Flowers worked in the warehouse
He weighed about one-thirty-one
But he could move a quarter-ton with a hand-truck
He said "I do it the easy way, son"
You don't have to have a rich family
If you know how to make a buck
You don't have to know all the answers
If you know where to look them up
The Bible says you get ten talents
I think I got maybe two
But baby take note - I 'm gonna use them both
To try to do my best for you
Lost in the lights of town, we're two in a million
Down by the city pier in a crowded pavilion
There's a sign on the dock, a two-hour sail from the harbor
Let's get away and go on a moonlight cruise
Moonlight cruise on a summer night
The water's calm and the stars are bright
Moonlight cruise leave your day behind
Take an hour to clear your mind
Though it's only across the bay
We'll pretend that we're far away
Don't say no, baby let's just go on a moonlight cruise
Two and a half miles out, the skyline is fading
Leaving a golden glow, it looks like a painting
The buildings and boats are lit up along the horizon
We might stay out all night on the moonlight cruise
Bonnie on a bike she's nice and natural
She's got a smile that's smart and true
Bonnie on a bike she's light and likable
She's got something for you
She said
When I fly nobody fights with me
When I sail nobody sees
When I ride it's for the right reason
I didn't ask to be free
Bonnie on a bike can cover lots of ground
Finding lonely hearts and hungry heads
Bonnie on a bike got lots of customers
Everybody gets fed
She said
When I fly nobody fights with me
When I sail nobody sees
When I ride its for the right reasons
I didn't ask to be free
Bonnie on a bike don't think it's easy now
Everybody needs to make ends meet
Bonnie on a bike it makes you queasy when
You got nothing to eat
She said
When I fly nobody fights with me
When I sail nobody sees
When I ride it's for the right reasons
I didn't ask to be free
From the high-rise suite
To the pushcart in the street
There's a price to stay alive
Everybody's selling something
To survive
Bonnie on the beach A change of scenery
Working on a tan that's tight and smooth
Bonnie on the beach Umbrellas fifty cents
She's got something for you
Sneaky summer sun is peaking through the blinds
Checking our her bathing suit lines
We're under the fan where breezes play
On this lazy Luray day
I'm counting all her freckles and as I do
Her upper lip is glistening with a heavy dew
Soft skin, sweet as the smell of new mown hay
On this lazy Luray day
Honeysuckles wilting
Cicadas song is lilting
The weather's right for making love and lemonade
Blue bottle flies are creeping
The dog and cat are sleeping
We run a tub filled up with water and some ice
We got it made
I say I hope we never ever get AC
The heat's a good excuse for kicking back you and me
She sighs and fills up another ice cube tray
On this lazy Luray day
Ain't doin' nothin' no way
On this humid hot and hazy lazy Luray Virginia day
Tonight let's go to a place I know
Where they're just warming up at the midnight show
It's by the water
When you get your work done you can have a lot of fun
By the water
They play the best music that there ever was
It's kind of hard to find but everybody does By the water
If you're not feeling hot they can cure what you got By the water
They play it hot and they play it live
If you make some noise they'll keep playing till five By the water
If you're not feeling great you can get rejuvenated By the water
When the lights go down in the waterfront town
The party goes all night
The breeze is cool on a back bar stool
The piano is shining in the burning hot spotlight
The bartender knows how to be discreet
She won't say who you were with last week It's by the water
If your life is complicated you won't be interrogated by the water
The beer is cold and the girls are fine
There's no dress code and no closing time By the water
You can do what you do ain't nobody watching you By the water
They're rolling up the sidewalks
In some city where I'm staying
I've got movies and cartoons and all-night news
I would try and call you
But I think by now you're sleeping
And the way you work, that's something you could use
We pay our dues
I'll see you soon
Sitting with a candle and a cat
In one of our two tiny rooms
It can't be too soon
There's an end in sight
Just three more nights
I'll be there soon
I think we got it backwards
You're the one who likes to travel
And I am the reluctant frequent flyer
I can see hear you in a speaker
I can read your instant message
But a thousand miles is still a thousand miles
In just a while
I'll see you soon
Sitting with a candle and a cat
In one of our two tiny rooms
It can't be too soon
There's an end in sight
Just one more night
I'll be there soon
There's an end in sight
Leave on a light
I'll be home soon

Moving boxes every inch piled high and tight
Single bed by the wall
One-room palace paper plates by candlelight
Cold and dark in the fall
There's no wine glass coffee mug will do
As long as i can sip this grape with you
Stay with me
Hearts in tune
Starting new
Sparkling blue harmony
Hard luck love life was my story until now
Hurting heart history
Out of nowhere you appeared to me somehow
An unsolved mystery
Where'd you come from, how did you get here
It was cloudy, now it's crystal clear
Stay with me...
Rolling pennies nickels from the loose change jar
Just to go on the town
No work no plans nothing left but burned-out stars
But it won't keep us down
From the life i had to leave behind
Yo this place i never thought i'd find
Stay with me...
Raymond packed his suitcase and left it by the door
He was always ready for a trip seven days before
This time all his road maps couldn't show the way
Through the fields and farms a million miles away
As Janet tried to help him figure what to pack
She wanted to secure her soul on the luggage rack
She caught his eyes in silence reaching for the door
On the journey he had never made before
But I think they'll be together again someday
He'll be back on the tractor chewin on some hay
She'll be safe from harm on a Maryland farm every Saturday
I think he's coming back this time to stay
I think they'll be together again someday
She remembers how she watched him drive the mountain roads
To the refuge of the timbers near forgotten motherloads
Sometimes she just stayed at home to keep the city near
Now she swears she'd trade it all for one more year
But I think they'll be together...
Raymond's illness took him down and Janet's tears flowed free
The lawyers came, she signed her name and sold the property
She told me of her dream where he was leaving for the road
Without a suitcase or her hand to hold
But I think they'll be together...
If you walk the streets tonight
We'll be there at every light
Strumming strings as they ring through the crowd
Just a dollar for a song
Buddy how can you go wrong
Won't you toss a little in the hat and sing with us out loud
You can run us out of town
But we'll always be around
Singing in the street as we roam
We don't need no cars
Just our songs and our guitars
We'll be wailing at the Old Folkies Home
Like the minstrel days of yore
And the travelling troubadors
Our tradition traces to the dawn of time
If you'd get us both a drink
Buddy that would help us think
Of the history that led us down this long and lonely line
You can run us out of town...
Now they're closing up the town
All the bars are shutting down
The police are patrolling the square
But as long as there's a moon
We will play just one more tune
Don't be shocked at five o'clock AM if we're still playing there
You can run us out of town...
Year after year the conflict went on
Neighbor fought neighbor with beatings and bombs
Tempers were short and memory was long
Hatred like tree roots grew strong
Fighting continued as peacemakers tried
To find a solution and close the divide
They asked each camp to send ten of their young
To meet far away from the guns
Children of conflict came from both sides
Gathered together without knowing why
Seeing the faces of those they despised
And the tears in the enemy's eyes
They listened in silence and stared at the floor
While one girl whose brother had died in the war
Talked of the life that he'd never live
She would never forgive
No one responded, what could be said
To a child of an enemy mourning her dead
Everyone there had a loved one who'd died
They all broke down and cried
Children of conflict came from both sides
Gathered together without knowing why
Seeing the sorow that time can't erase
And the tears on the enemy's face
No one expects to see conflict resolved
Where years of destruction and hate are involved
But if twenty children achieved nothing more
They put faces on war
Children of conflict came from both sides
Gathered together without knowing why
Knowing the sorow that time can't erase
And the tears on the enemy's face
Johnna's room puts my mind in a trance
Silks from india and coffee from france
The scent of cloves and incense is filling the air
Ink drawings and green palms everywhere
Johnna's eyes make me dizzy and weak
Living dangerously in valleys and peaks
Wondering where i stand as the evening slides past
Sweet closeness in small doses goes fast
Johnna knows but she's not gonna tell
It's still a secret she keeps very well
Johnna knows her heart is closed in a shell
Johnna changes her mind every day
Should she take some classes or move to L.A.
What should she do with the two men who've captured her mind
Both please her, she won't leave one behind
Johnna's future is a white empty wall
She wants to paint it and cover it all
But she likes too many colors and she can't decide
Which love does she dream of deep inside
Johnna knows but she's not gonna tell
Why should she choose when it's going so well
Johnna knows her heart is closed in a shell
Getting through one night at a time
Pain and pleasure that fill up my mind
Hidden meaning in every word that she says
How long can it go on on the edge
Johnna knows but she's not gonna tell
Why should she choose when it's going so well
Johnna knows and if it shows what the hell
I build the doors in the city
I help them lock in their lives
Turning the knobs on their jobs and their husbands and wives
One day i saw a new door
One that my hands had not made
I heard a voice say come through and i was not afraid
Then i opened the door never opened before
And i saw there was more than i knew
And i followed the guide as he flew me inside of the view
I saw a million children
Each waving wings with a smile
Walking on air to a fair where they dance in the aisles
The road and the sky were shining
They were the same in this time
Stained glass and stone sang refrains in a tone clear and fine
Then I opened the door...
I can see there
I can be there
I can walk through the windows and walls
As the barriers crumble and fall
And give way to a new nature's law
I will be there
Now I can see the true world
Simple things glow to the touch
We all build hallways to hide when the truth is too much
None of the walls will hold us
None of the doors will be real
Nothing to prove we can make the earth move as we feel
Then i opened the door...
I can see there
I can be there
I can walk through the windows and walls
(Learning to see as at birth)
As the barriers crumble and fall
(A warrior walks on the earth)
And give way to a new nature's law
I will be there (Not as before)
I will be there (Come through the door)
I will be there
Every day you couldn't wait to run outside and see
What was dancing in the dirt and up in the trees
To a sweet spot in the sun resting casually
Till you ran back to me
When you lived within four walls it was hard for you
Staring sadly through the glass at the river view
But I'd rather you lived free than safe inside a room
Till you ran back to me
We watched your eyes of wisdom as you wandered
Wondering what you saw that we could not
Trying to perceive the thoughts you pondered
Some say what you learn is just the things that you forgot
Now I want to live each minute like it was the last
Not to think about the future or what's in the past
When your month was like a year the time went by too fast
Till you ran back to me
Not a single day goes by that i don't think of you
And remember all the things that we used to do
And have hope I took the right road to be true to you
And wish that you'd run back
Run back to me
As I was a-walkin' along the morning shore
I met a fair young maiden, a beauty that's for sure
Her skin was white as oyster shells, her eyes a lovely pair
A muslin shawl around her neck, silk ribbons in her hair
She asked me would I play a tune to soothe the roaring tide
On the funny little organ that I carry by my side
I put the organ to my lips and played a melody
It came from deep within the raging rhythms of the sea
I felt her eyes upon me as I played with all my heart
Inside my soul was dancing like a rooster in the yard
I felt the passion from within us could not be denied
As it filled the little organ that I carry by my side
I said dear maiden can I woo you by the fire bright
You set my heart aflame and my fancy into flight
And then one special day I'll ask your father for your hand
She said you silly fellow, I don't think you understand
You play a pretty tune but you could never be the one
For I have drawn the favor of the royal Governor's son
Do you think I can afford silk ribbons on my own?
I want a man of means to buy me clothes and precious stones
'Twas then I learned the truth that minstrels knew in days of old
That If you can pay the piper it's because you've got the gold
And as for me I am content with tunes I can provide
On the funny little organ that I carry by my side
As I was a-walkin' along the morning shore
I met a fair young maiden, a beauty that's for sure
Her skin was white as oyster shells, her eyes a lovely pair
A muslin shawl around her neck, silk ribbons in her hair
She asked me would I play a tune to soothe the roaring tide
On the funny little organ that I carry by my side
I put the organ to my lips and played a melody
It came from deep within the raging rhythms of the sea
I felt her eyes upon me as I played with all my heart
Inside my soul was dancing like a rooster in the yard
I felt the passion from within us could not be denied
As it filled the little organ that I carry by my side
I said dear maiden can I woo you by the fire bright
You set my heart aflame and my fancy into flight
And then one special day I'll ask your father for your hand
She said you silly fellow, I don't think you understand
You play a pretty tune but you could never be the one
For I have drawn the favor of the royal Governor's son
Do you think I can afford silk ribbons on my own?
I want a man of means to buy me clothes and precious stones
'Twas then I learned the truth that minstrels knew in days of old
That If you can pay the piper it's because you've got the gold
And as for me I am content with tunes I can provide
On the funny little organ that I carry by my side
What in hell did I do wrong and how'd I end up here
There must be a reason but it's not exactly clear
"You should know," they told me, "you're the one who did the crime"
But the only one who's clueless is the one who's facing time
Who is my accuser, 'cause he's not identified
They tell me that his name is classified
Classified, classified, what informants spread these lies
How do I deny their claims when I don't even know their names
They sent me to a lawyer who agreed to plead my case
He said, "They'll think you're guilty 'cause you've got that kind of face
You're a threat to state security so lay low for a while
I'll file the writs as time permits, someday you'll get your trial
I asked him what the charge is, what's the law that I've defied
He said, "Ingrate! Don't be foolish! You know that's classified"
Classified, classified, reputation tossed aside
How can I make my defense if I can't see the evidence
Peeking through the shadows was another man accused
He whispered from the darkness, sounding frightened and confused,
"It's been years with no indictment, I'm just waiting for the word."
I told him that his situation bordered on absurd
The judges and the wardens can't deny your basic rights
"Give it time," he said, "and you will lose your will to fight
You can't understand the law, believe me, I have tried.
The lawyer is my only chance
To change this dreadful circumstance
And save me from my ignorance
In case I'm not in compliance
With every rule they say is classified"
Classified, classified, what to do when hope has died?
How can they enforce these laws that hold a person without cause
The law lies in a hidden room beyond an open door
The guard who blocks the entrance won't say what the door is for
You can try to bribe him like the others must have done
But you find out, after years go by, that you're the only one
Yes, this door was meant for only you, and access is denied
They tell you that the password is classified
Classified, classified, secrets hidden deep inside
Locked away from pubic view, next time they might come for you
The tap root tree grows far and deep
Where the possums play and the mudworms sleep
Seeking life everywhere it lives
And taking a lot less than it gives
And the roots go round the world
And the roots go round the world
They wind and curl and wind and curl
And the roots go round the world
People on every continent
Could embrace the tree to their hearts' content
Eating the fruit, sleeping in the shade
Carving the wood into things they made
And the roots go round...
But no body was keeping track
They took from the tree and did not give back
For years they were looking the other way
And the roots dried up and the leaves blew away
And the roots go round...
When their eyes were opened they began to see
How much they would miss the tap root tree
Their tears fell into the hungry ground
And the big tree grew back safe and sound
And the roots go round...

It had to be you
It had to be you
I wandered around and finally found
The somebody who
Could make me be blue
Could make me be true
Even be glad just to be sad
Thinking of you
Some others I've seen
Might never be mean
Might never be cross or try to be boss
But they wouldn't do
For nobody else gave me a thrill
Yo'uve got your faults
I love you still
Wonderful you marvelous you
It had to be you
Indescribable you undeniable you
It had to be you
Irreplaceable you sweet embracable you
It had to be you
Wonderful you marvelous you
It had to be you
(Akst /Davis)
When you were a baby not so long ago
You must have been the cutest thing
I can picture you at every baby show
Just winning every ribbon
With your sweet baby ways
Hey honey I ain't kidding
You'd win them all today
Baby Face
You've got the cutest little baby face
There's not another one can take your place
Baby face
My poor heart is jumping
You sure have started something
Baby face, I'm up in heaven when I'm in your warm embrace
I didn't need a shove cause I just fell in love
With your pretty baby face
Rosy cheeks and turned up nose and curly hair
I'm raving about my baby now
Pretty little dimples here and dimples there
Don't want to live without her
I love her goodness knows
I wrote a song about her
And here's the way it goes
(Perkins/Oken/Coleman)
It never occurred to me
That someday you might refer to me
As someone you used to know
Never thought it would happen
That we'd drift apart
And I'd be left with just a memory in my heart
It never occurred to me
That someday you might prefer to be
In somebody else's arms
Never thought I'd see the day
The day when you would pass me by
It never occurred to me
Till now
(Stookey/Kniss/Dixon)
Jimmy Macgregor hey Jimmy come here
Jimmy you son of a gun
Whatcha been doing how long has it been
Hell seven years if it's been one
How the preacher how's Don did he go back to school
No kidding I thought he was gay
Who me oh I'm great, I'm a father you know
Yeah, two of them and one on the way
Oh well she couldn't make it, she gets pretty tired
She started her last month today
I only stopped by for a couple of minutes
Believe me I wish I could stay
Oh yeah while I think of it, do you remember
Not for myself, for a friend
A girl that I brought here before I got married
A couple of times at the end
What's her name
I hardly knew her
What's her name
What happened to her
I wonder if she ever got over me
Anyway I should be flattered
For yesterday at least I mattered
Where did it go
Jimmy I tell you we're two lucky guys
You've got everything that you planned
All things considered I've done farily well
I mean God's honest truth man
I love Ruth and
What's her name
She hardly knew me
Now her name
Means something to me
I don't know why
I'll never forget what's her name
(Berlin)
Gone is the romance that was so divine
It's broken and cannot be mended
You must go your way
And I must go mine
But now that our dreams have ended
What'll I do
When you are far away
And I am blue
What'll I do?
What'll I do?
When I am wondering who
Is kissing you
What'll I do?
What'll I do with just a photograph
To tell my troubles to?
When I'm alone
With only dreams of you
That won't come true
What'll I do?
(Livingston/Evans)
Should I try to hold her near me
How should I try to tell her
Should I sigh and hope she'll hear me
Or should I wait would it pay
Or should I simply say that
She's the love I've dreamed of always
The only love I long to hold
It's hard to hide deep inside
The things that should be told
But how to tell her
How should I tell her
How can I tell her of my love
(Livingston/Evans)
Should I try to hold her near me
How should I try to tell her
Should I sigh and hope she'll hear me
Or should I wait would it pay
Or should I simply say that
She's the love I've dreamed of always
The only love I long to hold
It's hard to hide deep inside
The things that should be told
But how to tell her
How should I tell her
How can I tell her of my love
(Livingston/Evans)
Should I try to hold her near me
How should I try to tell her
Should I sigh and hope she'll hear me
Or should I wait would it pay
Or should I simply say that
She's the love I've dreamed of always
The only love I long to hold
It's hard to hide deep inside
The things that should be told
But how to tell her
How should I tell her
How can I tell her of my love
(Cahn/Styne)
Time after time
I tell myself that I'm
So lucky
To be loving you
I'm so lucky to be
The one you run to see
In the evening
When the day is through
I only know what I know
The passing years will show
You've kept our love so young
So new
And time after time
I tell myself that I'm
So lucky to be loving you
(Shavers/Robins)
First you say you do
And then you don't
And then you say you will
And then you won't
You`re undecided now
So what are you gonna do
First you say you'll play
And then it's no
And then you say you'll stay
That's when you go
You're undecided now
So what are you gonna do
I've been sitting on a fence
And it doesn't make much sense
You keep me in suspense
And you know it
Then you promise to return
When you don't I really burn
I guess I'll never learn
And I show it
If you've got a heart
And if you're kind
Then don't keep us apart
Make up your mind
You're undecided now
So what are you gonna do
